If you want to see true Caucasian poverty, become a tourist in southwest Virginia(aka Mississippi).

Humans are like dogs. Different breeds of dogs have different psychological and actual brain design characteristics. The problem with racism is that individuals are wrongly forced into a mould of a generalisation against their will. That sort of racism is evil-doing. But acknowledging that one breed of dog is generally great for one sort of thing and another is sensible. Similarly, human breeds have variable characteristics, albeit with lots of overlap by individuals. Anyone who thinks evolutionary theory is true has to accept that fact.

There's nothing wrong with eugenics, unless it's done by governments against the will of women. Women are the primary exponents of eugenics and carry out their eugenics programme all day every day, relentlessly and mercilessly casting aside unwanted genetically inferior men and selecting the superior. Overall, they have done a reasonable job of it as people can walk on their hind legs, dropping onto their knuckles only occasionally. There is plenty of room for improvement as we are still very similar to chimps.

With genetic information becoming cheaply available, women are going to accelerate their eugenics programmes. They'll be able to select the basic bloke, then clip in "the right stuff" to enhance the basic design and eliminate clearly harmful genes. For example, a doctor friend of our son's has a stomach cancer gene. He had his stomach removed in his late 20s and it turned out the cancer had already started [it was a pre-emptive removal]. His wife and he decided to have children. So they got a bunch of fertilized eggs and selected the good ones. Unfortunately, after a couple of attempts, they didn't work, so they decided to go with the natural lottery and now have a random infant who might have to have their stomach removed if it turns out they got the short straw. The couple decided it was better to have life with the gene than to not have life. He's in a good position to have that opinion having had the experience himself.

The human gene pool is now phenomenally huge so the scope for selective breeding is amazing. Evolution is now more rapid than ever. Billions of us are being winnowed in the selection process.

Eugenics rules ok.
